Defeating Crime and Terrorism Threats Using Prevention Based Methods
Safety is a crucial need and a significant indicator of a healthy society.
The risks of crime and terrorism can be reduced if close attention to recent developments in the
field of crime prevention.
Contemporary terrorist organizations and other criminal groups seek to identify systemic deficiencies
and exploit them, but they also use methods and means based on unforeseen opportunities presented to them.
Serious human, economic, and political damage can result unless the contemporary safety needs are accurately
and timely met. Carefully planned crime prevention activities avoid overrated crime and terrorism threats,
while maintaining proper vigilance.
Safety is not a monopoly of the government; it is the duty of everyone,
but police and other security agencies need to oversee and help to link these activities.
The first condition of this role is optimum awareness of safety needs and understanding of reasonable
solutions to address them.
This workshop is an attempt to share contemporary security issues and innovations in a single day during
three workshop sessions for Virginia administrators, law enforcement officers, police and related security
personnel. The three workshop sessions: Security Awareness, Prevention-Based Emerging Security Technologies,
and Terrorism Awareness will be held to combine theory and practice in each session.
The Forum Room at the Virginia Commonwealth University is the workshop location for the opportunity to interact
with the presenters and participants on the latest security threats, needs and technologies.
The workshop will be held on November 15, 2006 and will begin at 8:45 AM.
